I updated my local git tree and I don't see a tag for 3.3.4?

$ git tag
v2.1.1
v2.1alpha1
v2.1beta1
v2.1beta2
v3.0.1
v3.0.2
v3.1.0
v3.1beta1
v3.1beta2
v3.2alpha1
v3.2beta1
v3.3.0alpha1
v3.3.0alpha2
v3.3.0beta2
v3.3.1
v3.3.2

   It would be really useful if you could tag it or post the commit 
ref that 3.3.4 relates to?  I did a "git pull" which, afaik, pulls 
the tags too.

   Thanks.
